Zoho Inventory

Consume Zoho Inventory API

Actions14

Overview

This node integrates with the Zoho Inventory API to manage assemblies, which are records representing the assembly of composite items from component items. Specifically, the Delete Assembly operation allows users to delete an existing assembly by its ID.

Typical use cases include:

  • Removing incorrect or obsolete assembly records from Zoho Inventory.
  • Automating cleanup of assemblies as part of inventory management workflows.
  • Integrating with other systems to synchronize assembly data by deleting outdated entries.

For example, if a user mistakenly created an assembly for a composite item, they can use this node operation to delete that assembly by providing its unique Assembly ID.

Properties

Name Meaning
Assembly ID The unique identifier of the assembly to delete. This is required to specify which assembly record should be removed.

Output

The output JSON contains a confirmation of the deletion operation:

{
  "success": true,
  "message": "Assembly deleted successfully"
}
  • success: A boolean indicating whether the deletion was successful.
  • message: A human-readable message confirming the deletion.

No binary data is output by this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API authentication token configured via OAuth2 credentials for Zoho Inventory.
  • The node expects the organization ID to be set within the credentials configuration.
  • Network access to Zoho Inventory API endpoints is necessary.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing Credentials: If the OAuth2 credentials are not configured or invalid, the node will throw an error indicating missing credentials. Ensure you have set up and authorized the Zoho Inventory OAuth2 credentials in n8n.
  • Missing Organization ID: An error will occur if the organization ID is not provided in the credentials. Verify the organization ID is correctly entered in the credential settings.
  • Invalid Assembly ID: Providing an incorrect or non-existent Assembly ID will result in an API error. Double-check the Assembly ID before running the node.
  • API Errors: Any API-level errors (e.g., permission issues, rate limits) will be surfaced as node errors. Review the error messages and consult Zoho Inventory API documentation for resolution.
